I always emphasize the importance of research before trying a new drug. https://www.erowid.org/chemicals/lsd/lsd.shtml is your friend. Read a lot, especially trip reports.

I was quite cocky my first time, even though I had done my research. I figured having tons of mushroom trips under my belt had prepared me. I took ~500µg. This trip was unlike anything I had ever experienced. The intense energy that built up within me was quite frightening. I also experienced the dreaded thought loops.

I would say start small at maybe a half a hit, get a feel for the drug and try more later on. This is the safest route.

As for vendors, check out this thread from the lsd Avengers. It was extremely helpful for my first purchase. http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=45270.0

Happy Trails!

vendors i've used with good results - vitacat, 3jane, lucydrop

i suggest 100ug for your first time if you're by yourself in a safe and comfortable setting.... 200ug if you have a good sitter

I took acid for the first time a month ago.  A friend got it for me and I am pretty sure I took ~200ug.  I have taken shrooms about 5 times so I had experienced a trip before.

I am glad I took both hits.  The visuals were very intense and I tripped alone in my apartment.  I did black out for a while, or I just lost track of time because I checked the clock and 4 hours had disappeared.

I would suggest getting a music playlist together before you trip.  I found it difficult to try to pick songs once I was already tripping.  I ended up listening to the same album over and over.

Visually things were crazy but I had the mindset from the beginning that what I was seeing wasn't real and it was supposed to happen.  I had a great time I hope you do to.

It is always the best to test yourself how much is good for you. Start with a little amount and see what happens....

Blackout? damn i love taking a bath on acid. Hope i never pass out. i might drown! 4 hours disappearing is crazy. never happened to me on psychedelics. Time usually slows down like hell for me. I look at the clock lets say its 13:40. and i go mess around  yknow. look at it again what i think is an hour later and its like 13:45!  an hour passes in 5 minutes...

for the op:
i suggest you get a few hits, take one to try it out then a week or two later you can double your dose.
Take it early if you want to sleep at night. Since you have tripped on mushrooms i will not give you the set and setting/ go with the flow kinda lecture.
Buy from star vendors.

I took shrooms a bunch before I took my first LSD trip, and I would say the shroom trips only partly prepared me for LSD.  For me, I describe shroom trips as fun and crazy, but LSD trips are deep and intense. 

I am torn as to the advice to give you.  My rational part is saying only take 1 hit (I consider 1 hit a standard baseline dose, no matter the actual ug dosage--some prints require 3 hits, other require half a hit).  This will potentially disappoint you, but will most likely not result in an experience that is too intense to be enjoyed.  My gut, though, is saying you should take 3 hits.  This will definitely show you what LSD is all about, and there is a very real chance that it will be so intense that it's overwhelming.  Assuming you are a mentally-healthy individual, there is no documented medical risk to massively overdosing on LSD.  The only risk is of having a negative trip, which can be mitigated by preparing set and setting.  The choice is really up to you--do you feel that you are well enough prepared to enjoy an overwhelmingly intense experience that you have never gone through before? 

I personally took (what I now know was) a fairly large dose, 250ug.  (We at least confirmed that each hit contained 250ug of the source crystals, but not the quality of the crystal--I've never seen crystals since then and I really don't know how one would verify the quality of the crystals...anyway...)  I was blown away but in a good way.  Set and setting were optimal and I had a great, albeit overwhelming, time and fell in love with LSD.  I've had many trips since...I've lost count ;-)

As for sourcing, blerbadoo said it--check out the LSD Avengers thread. 

That's the name of the group that took it upon themselves to centrally verify LSD sources and batches on SR.  In the early days here, LSD was in relatively short supply, a ridiculous amount of vendors were cropping up and advertising "STRONG 300+ug LSD" which was in fact blotters laid with other RCs.  Other vendors would selectively scam or switch from selling legit LSD to RCs on the same prints.  So the LSD market on here was extremely ugly and difficult to work with, and too many new members were falling victim. 

Now though, thanks to the LSD Avengers and other helpful forum members, there is enough collective feedback that it's not hard at all for a new member on the forums to find a reliable LSD source.  There are a good number of established reliable vendors now, so scammers are much less common, and much easier to differentiate from the reliable vendors.  Also, new vendors are usually blacklisted immediately and made to (well asked to, unofficially) supply samples to the LSD avengers so that they can non-blacklist the new vendor, and give the vendor an opportunity to gain a customer base.

so in general, when you are looking for a vendor, look for one that has been around for a good amount of time (>1 year preferably), has good feedback, and preferably a vendor that has a following on the forum.  I personally buy from 3Jane, as she is well established, friendly and respectful, and generally honest about her product.  But check out the avengers thread to stay current

Enjoy!!  I think you'll have a great time if you're in the right place!

Assuming you're in a good set and setting :

100ug is a good starting dosage

If you're comfortable at this dosage, i'd wait a week, and then try 150-200ug.

200 to 400ug is the perfect dosage for most experienced LSD users.

A sitter is always advisable of course.

I recommend the vendors 3jane and vitacat. :)
